ordering post build actions

[Arpit Gupta]

Hi All

I searched the group to see if ordering post build actions was possible and i found this jira https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-7408. However i am noticing that the order in which the post build actions are executed does not seem to be the order in which they appear in the job config page.

For example for some of the jobs i had the following 2 post build actions

1. trigger downstream job

2. delete workspace

It would end up deleting the workspace first and thus the downstream job would fail as it was looking for a properties file in the workspace. I am working around it by not deleting the workspace but was curious if it is possible to order post build actions and if so is the above scenario a bug? I am on v1.607 but saw this in earlier versions as well. Do not recall the exact version.

Thanks

Arpit

In this case, I'd say you should archive the properties file as an artifact, and then retrieve it in the downstream job using the Copy Artifact plugin.

Yup that will work that is why for now i just disabled deleting of the workspace. But the issue become’s bigger when i add more post build actions that want to use the scripts checkout from git into the workspace. I would prefer not to archive files for just this use case. So was curious if ordering was supported.

ended up logging https://issues.jenkins-ci.org/browse/JENKINS-27852 just to see if my assumption that the order the post build actions are in is the order they should be executed in.
